1. swear it again


Shane:
I wanna know
Who ever told you I was letting go
Of the only joy that I have ever known
Girl, they were lying

Just look around
And all of the people that we used to know
Have just given up, they wanna let it go
But we're still trying

So you should know this love we share was never made to die
I'm glad we're on this one way street just you and I
Just you and I

All:
I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain
And I swear it all over again

Shane:
All over again

Some people say
That everything has got its place in time
Even the day must give way to the night
But I'm not buying
Cos in your eyes
I see a love that burns eternally
And if you see how beautiful you are to me
You'll know I'm not lying

Sure there'll be times we wanna say goodbye
But even if we try
There are some things in this life won't be denied
Won't be denied

All:
I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain
And I swear it all over again

Mark:
The more I know of you is the more I know I love you
And the more that I'm sure I want you forever and ever more
And the more that you love me, the more that I know
Oh that I'm never gonna let you go
Gotta let you know that I

All:
I'm never gonna say goodbye
Cos I never wanna see you cry
I swore to you my love would remain
And I swear it all over again and I
I'm never gonna treat you bad
Cos I never wanna see you sad
I swore to share your joy and your pain
Mark:
(oh no, oh no)
And I swear it all over again

Mark:
All over again
All over again
And I swear it all over again

2. if i let you go


Shane:
Day after day
Time passed away
And I just can't get you off my mind
Nobody knows, I hide it inside
I keep on searching but I can't find

Mark:
The courage to show to letting you know
I've never felt so much love before

All (Shane lead):
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

All:
But if I let you go I will never know
What my life would be holding you close to me
Will I ever see you smiling back at me? (Shane: oh yeah)
How will I know
Shane: if I let you go?

Bryan:
Night after night I hear myself say
Why can't this feeling just fade away
There's no one like you (no one like you)
You speak to my heart (speak to my heart)
It's such a shame we're worlds apart

Shane:
I'm too shy to ask, I'm too proud to lose
But sooner or later I gotta choose
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

All:
But if I let you go I will never know
What my life would be, holding you close to me
Will I ever see you smiling back at me? (oh yeah)
How will I know
Shane: if I let you go ?

Shane:
If I let you go ooooh baby
Ooooooooohhhhh

Bryan:
Once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out
Ooooooooohhhhh

All:
But if I let you go I will never know
What my life would be, holding you close to me
(Mark: close to me)
Will I ever see you smiling back at me?
(Shane: oh yeah)
How will I know
(Bryan: if I let you go?)
But if I let you go I will never know
(Mark: oh baby)
Will I ever see you smiling back at me?
(Shane: oh yeah)
How will I know
Shane:
If I let you go

3. flying without wings


Shane:
Everybody's looking for that something
One thing that makes it all complete
You'll find it in the strangest places
Places you never knew it could be

Some find it in the face of their children
Some find it in their lover's eyes
Who can deny the joy it brings
When you've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

Mark:
Some find it sharing every morning
Some in their solitary lives
You'll find it in the words of others
A simple line can make you laugh or cry

You'll find it in the deepest friendship
The kind you cherish all your life
And when you know how much that means
You've found that special thing
You're flying without wings

So, impossible as they may seem
You've got to fight for every dream
Cos who's to know which one you let go
Would have made you complete

Shane:
Well, for me it's waking up beside you
To watch the sunrise on your face
To know that I can say I love you
In any given time or place

Mark:
It's little things that only I know
Those are the things that make you mine
And it's like flying without wings
Cos you're my special thing
I'm flying without wings

Shane:
And you're the place my life begins
And you'll be where it ends

Mark:
I'm flying without wings
And that's the joy you bring
I'm flying without wings

4. fool again


Shane:
Baby
I know the story,
I've seen the picture
It's written all over your face
Tell me
What's the secret
That you've been hiding
And who's gonna take my place

I should have seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over

Chorus:
Can't believe that I'm the fool again,
I thought this love would never end
How was I to know?
You never told me,
Can't believe that I'm the fool again
And I who thought you were my friend,
How was I to know?
You never told me.

Shane:
Baby
You should have called me
When you were lonely
When you needed me to be there
Sadly
You never gave me
Too many chances
To show you how much I care

I should have seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over

Chorus

Mark:
About the pain and the tears,
oh oh oh,
If I could I would,
Turn back the time

Shane:
Ooh yeah
I should've seen it coming
I should've read the signs
Anyway...
I guess it's over

Chorus x2

5. no no


Shane:
No No, (no no, no no, no no, no no)

Once we had it all for the taking
Love was just me and you
You better think twice
About the plans that you're making
Of splitting one world in two

Put your mind in doubt
Did you think about
Everything that we're missing
Don't you make me see
What is best for me
'Cause I just won't listen baby

All:
No No, No No
I don't need nobody
Anyone to take your place but you
No No, No No
I just couldn't fall for anyone new
Nobody but you

Mark:
Girl you are the life that I'm living
I just can't go on without you
Let's make it alright
Wake up to what we've been given
Remember the things we've been through (yeah)

Shane
Put your mind in doubt
Did you think about
Everything that we're missing
Don't you make me see
What is best for me
'Cause I just won't listen baby

All:
No No, No No
I don't need nobody
Anyone to take your place but you
No No, No No
I just couldn't fall for anyone new
Nobody but you

Bryan:
I can't imagine
The two of us apart
Can't find a reason
'Cause I still believe
There's no one like you
That is why I need

Mark:
Nobody but you

All (Mark):
Don't need nobody (yeah)
Anyone to take your place but you
(No No No, No No No No)
Don't need nobody at all
(No No, No No, No No)
No No, No No
I don't need nobody (Don't need nobody)
Anyone to take your place but you
No No, No No
I just couldn't fall for anyone new (No No, No No)
Nobody but you

Mark:
No No No, No No, No No
I don't need nobody
No No No, No No No No babe,
I don't need nobody
No No No, No No, No No
I just couldn't fall for anyone new

Shane:
Nobody but you

6. i dont wanna fight


I can't sleep, everything I ever knew
Is a lie without you

I can't breathe
When my heart is broke in two
There's no beat
Without you

You're not gone, but you're not here
At least that's the way it seems tonight
If we could try to end these wars
I know that we can make it right
'Cause baby

I donīt wanna fight no more
I forgot what we were fighting for
And this loneliness that's in my heart
Won't let me be apart from you
I don't wanna have to try
Girl to live without you in my life
So I'm hoping we can start tonight
'Cause I don't want to fight no more

How can I live
When everything that I adore
And everything I'm living for
Girl it's in you

I can't dream
Sleepless nights have got me bad
The only dream I ever had
Is beeing with you

I know that we can make it right
It's gonna take a little time
Lets not leave ourselves with no way out
Lets not cross that line
(That line)

I donīt wanna fight no more
I forgot what we were fighting for
And this loneliness that's in my heart
Won't let me be apart from you
I don't wanna have to try
Girl to live without you in my life
So I'm hoping we can start tonight
'Cause I don't want to fight no more

Remember that I made a vow that I would
never let you go
I mean it then I mean it now and I
want to tell you so

I donīt wanna fight no more
I forgot what we were fighting for
And this loneliness that's in my heart
Won't let me be apart from you
I don't wanna have to try
Girl to live without you in my life
So I'm hoping we can start tonight
'Cause I don't want to fight no more
I donīt wanna fight no more
I forgot what we were fighting for
And this loneliness that's in my heart
Won't let me be apart from you
I don't wanna have to try
Girl to live without you in my life
So I'm hoping we can start tonight
'Cause I don't want to fight no more

It's a lie, without you, without you

7. change the world


Since you've gone, well it
Seems like everything is wrong
And deep inside, I know that I've
Lost much more than pride
Well happiness is getting further away
Girl I miss you more than words can say
I need a miracle now
So tell me

How can I change the world
'Cos I sure can't change your mind
Where's the miracle I need now
Got to get to you somehow
'Cos I can't change the world
I can't change the world
No I can't change the world

Losing you, well it's been the hardest thing to do
So I close my eyes and tell myself That somehow I'll survive
Well you gave me heaven then you
Took it away
Girl I miss you more with each
Passing day
I need a miracle now
So tell me...

How can I change the world
'Cos I sure can't change your mind
Where's the miracle I need now
Got to get to you somehow

And it's so sad that you have to leave me
Just so you can find yourself
And it's so sad that you just can't see
I love you more than life itself

No I can't change the world

How can I change the world
'Cos I sure can't change your mind
Where's the miracle I need now
Got to get to you somehow
'Cos I can't I can't change the world
Got to get to you somehow
No I can't change the world

8. moments


Shane:
If I die tonight, I'd go with no regrets
If it's in your arms I know that
I was blessed
And if your eyes are the last thing that I see
Then I know the beauty heaven holds for me

But if I make it through, if I live to
see the day
If I'm with you, I'll know just what to say
The truth be told, girl you take my breath away
Every minute, every hour, every day

'Cause every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait until tomorrow comes

Mark:
A moment in time is all that's given you and me
A moment in time, and it's something you should seize
So I won't make the mistake of letting go
Everyday you're here I'm gonna let you know

Shane:
That every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait until tomorrow comes

Each morning that I get up, I love you more than ever
So girl I'll never go away, never stray

So every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait until tomorrow comes
So every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait until tomorrow comes

Shane (Mark):
I love, love, love the moments (oh yeah)
Moments we share together
I love, love, love the moments (oh yeah)
I pray they'd last forever
I love, love, love the moments (oh yeah)
Moments we share together
I love, love, love the moments (oh yeah)
I pray they'd last forever

9. seasons in the sun


Kian:
Goodbye to you my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Bryan:
Goodbye my friend it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there

All:
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time

Shane:
Goodbye Papa please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along

Mark:
Goodbye papa it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children everywhere
When you see them I'll be there

All:
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

Nicky:
Goodbye Michelle my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

Shane:
Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there

All:
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

10. i need you


Shane:
Baby Baby I swear to you
Baby Baby I'm here for you

I don't know why
Why I did those things to you
What went through my mind
And I don't know why
Why I broke your heart in two
Guess that I was blind

Baby how I wish you could forgive me
Just one more time

All:
And I swear
I'll be there
Anytime you want me to
I'll be true
Here for you
Don't leave me lonely
Cause I need you

Mark:
Yes, I've been a fool
Now I see the price to pay
I can't run and hide
Cause I'm losing you
And my chances slipped away
With each time I lied

Shane:
Baby how I wish you could forgive me
One more time

Baby living without you
Will tear me apart
When I know how it could have been
But I don't care what it leads to
Let's make a new start
And give love a chance to win cause
Baby I swear

All:
Baby Baby I swear to you
Anytime you want me to
Yes I swear
Baby Baby I'm here for you
Don't leave me lonely
Cause I need you

Yes baby I need you

11. miss you


I can't sleep, I just can't breathe
When your shadow is all over me baby
Don't wanna be, a fool in your eyes
'Cause what we had was built in lies

And when our love seems to fade away
Listen to me hear what I say

I don't wanna feel
The way that I do
I just wanna be
Right here with you
I don't wanna see
See us apart
I just wanna say it straight from my heart
I miss you...

What would it take, for you to see
To make you understand that I'll always believe
You and I, can make it through
And still know, I can't get over you

And when our love seems to fade away
Listen to me hear what I say

I don't wanna feel
The way that I do
I just wanna be
Right here with you
I don't wanna see
See us apart
I just wanna say it straight from my heart
I miss you...

'Cause when our love always
fades away
Listen to me hear what I say

I don't wanna feel
The way that I do
I just wanna be
Right here with you
I don't wanna see
See us apart
I just wanna say it straight from my heart
I miss you... I don't wanna feel
The way that I do
I just wanna be
Right here with you
I don't wanna see
See us apart
I just wanna say it straight from my heart
I miss you...

12. more than words


Saying I love you
Is not the words
I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say
But if you only knew
How easy
It would be to
Show me how you feel
More than words
Is all you have to to
To make it real
Then you wouldn't
Have to say
That you love me
Cause I'd already know

What would you do
If my heart
Was torn in two
More than words
To show you feel
That your love
For me is real
What would you say
If I took
Those words away
Then you couldn't
Make things new
Just by saying
I love you
More than words
More than words

Now that I've tried to
Talk to you
And make you understand
All you have to do
Is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands
And touch me
Hold me close
Don't ever let me go
More than words
Is all I ever
Needed you to show
Then you wouldn't
Have to say
That you love me
'Cause I already know

13. open your heart


I didn't mean to let you down
You have to believe it
I don't know what went
through my mind
But now I can see

That I waited too long
To tell you how much it matters
Just to be right here with you
But I couldn't think of anything better
I should have told you so

Baby open your heart
Won't you give me a second chance
And I'll be here forever
Open your heart
Let me show you how much I care
And I will make you understand
If you open your heart
To love me once again

I'll try to make it up to you
I want you to know (you have to know)
Baby I swear that I'll be true
And never let go

If I waited too long
To tell you how much it matters
Just to be right here with you
But I couldn't think of anything better
I should have told you so

Baby open your heart
Won't you give me a second chance
And I'll be here forever
Open your heart
Let me show you how much I care
And I will make you understand
If you open your heart
To love me once again

We could relive this pain and sorrow
But we better do it in time
Start over here and save tomorrow
I wanna make you mine

Baby open your heart
Won't you give me a second chance
And I'll be here forever
Open your heart
Let me show you how much I care
And I will make you understand
If you open your heart
To love me once again
Baby open your heart
Won't you give me a second chance
And I'll be here forever
Open your heart
Let me show you how much I care
And I will make you understand
If you open your heart
To love me once again

Hush now don't you cry
There will be a better day
I promise you
We can work it out

Through any kind of weather

Shane:
But some day you will find what you're searching for

15. what i want is what i've got


All that I want
In my life
Is the feeling of peace
Deep within me truly
I took a chance
I let go
I promised myself
That it wouldn't scare me
Miracles appear I know
Now I can see it show
'Cause I

Found out what I dreamt of
And I looked it up
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got
Found out what was missing
And I looked it up and
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got

Life is too short
To hold back
I won't live in the past
Being lonely now I know
This is the time
Of my life
Yes I'm sure what I want
is what I've got

Miracles appear I know
Now that I can see it show
'Cause I

Found out what I dreamt of
And I looked it up
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got
Found out what was missing
And I looked it up and
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got

Now I've found out what I've
been dreaming of
It's the feeling of peace deep within me
Cause life is too short to hold back
I made up my mind, I just

Found out what I dreamt of
And I looked it up
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got
Found out what was missing
And I looked it up and
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got

Found out what I dreamt of
And I looked it up
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got
Found out what was missing
And I looked it up and
At this very moment
What I want is what I've got

16. we are one


Two very different people
Too scared to get along
Till two hearts beat together
Underneath one sun
One very special moment
Can turn a destiny
And what some would say
Could never change
Has changed for you and me

'Cause it's all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

We are two different people
So much to overcome
So why care for one another
When there's so much to be done
'Cause sometimes it's necessary
Just look how far we've come
You could say my friend that it's the end
Or a new tale has begun

'Cause it's all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

And one moment in the time
Is all the time we need
Just to make a difference
To make it better for you and me
If you just believe

Oh yeah
Just open your eyes

'Cause its all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

Oh yeah, Oh yeah
We were two
Now we are one

17. can't lose what you never had


Baby you're so beautiful
And when I'm near you I can't breathe
A girl like you gets who she wants
When she wants it
You're so our of my league
I show you no emotion
Don't let you see what your doin' to me
I imagine the two of us together
But I been livin' in reality

Fear of rejection, kept my love inside
But time is running out, so damn my foolish pride

I don't care if you think I'm crazy
It doesn't matter if it turns out bad
'Cos I've got no fear of losin' you
You can't lose what you never had
Now I'm gonna confess that I love you
I been keepin' it inside feelin' I could die
Now if you turn away then that's O.K
At least we'll have a moment before
You say good-bye
You can't lose what you never had

Rules are made for breakin'
Nothin' ventured nothin' gained
I'll be no worse off than I am right now
And I might never get the chance again

Fear of rejection, kept my love inside
Told my heart I didn't want you but I lied

I don't care if you think I'm crazy
It doesn't matter if it turns out bad
'Cos I've got no fear of losin' you
You can't lose what you never had
Now I'm gonna confess that I love you
I been keepin' it inside feelin' I could die
Now if you turn away then that's O.K
At least we'll have a moment before
You say good-bye
You can't lose what you never had

Here on the outside lookin' in
Don't wanna stay dreamin' 'bout what could have been
I need to hear you speak my name
Even if you shoot me down in flames

I don't care if you think I'm crazy
It doesn't matter if it turns out bad
'Cos I've got no fear of losin' you
You can't lose what you never had
Now I'm gonna confess that I love you
I been keepin' it inside feelin' I could die
Now if you turn away then that's O.K
At least we'll have a moment before
You say good-bye
You can't lose what you never had

You can't lose what you never had...
